Even if he had the 25 gold bars, Pi Qinghua couldn't go directly to the bank to exchange them for paper money. Even if he had an ID card now, he would never reveal any information that might reveal his existence before he had the ability to protect himself.
Although it has been three years since the initial disaster, those people will not give up the possibility of finding him without finding his body. After all, the most valuable bank account of the Pi family can only be opened in a foreign bank with his fingerprints and pupils. Even if he died, his "family members" would dig out his eyeballs in exchange for money and power.
Therefore, these 25 gold bars can only be exchanged on the black market.
Fortunately, he has been in the lower class of this city for three years, and he can find these shady places with his eyes closed. However, because the shady places have no constraints, he also needs to be prepared before exchanging money, otherwise he will definitely be robbed by the thieves in the end.
"Tsk, I have to find 25 different small black gold shops to exchange them. I might even have to go to the surrounding counties. It's really troublesome."
Pi Qinghua frowned, thought about it and buried one of the 25 gold bars in the garden behind the villa, put four in Langzhi's Grey Wolf bag, and put two of the last 20 in his pants, and 18 in his worn-out backpack. Of course, although the bag looked old on the outside, he had sewn the inside with the half tiger skin, so it was extremely sturdy.
If this half tiger skin could be sold, his bag would be worth at least a few old men's heads.
Afterwards, Pi Qinghua and Lang Zhi put the pile of skins into the big backpack and Gray Wolf's bag, waiting to leave quietly after nightfall, just as they sneaked in quietly.
But wishes are one thing, reality is another, and they rarely see eye to eye and think alike. So when it was completely dark and almost dead at 10 o'clock in the evening, when Pi Qinghua and Lang Zhi had just put on their backpacks and walked out of the gate with Dahei calmly, they ran into the owner of a mansion who was about to take out the key to enter the house five steps away.
Mansion owner: “… ”
The two people and a dog who were staying in the mansion: "… "
They looked at each other in silence, with tears streaming down their cheeks. The cliff was the true reflection of Pi Qinghua's heart at this moment. He simply didn't know whether to run away or to use his burned face to knock out the tall, dangerous man opposite him. Both sides followed the principle of "if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either", and the stalemate lasted for almost a minute.
Then, Pi Qinghua took a deep breath and kicked Dahei directly: "Damn it! Can't you smell someone coming outside?! What's the use of a dog like you!!"
Dahei: "Woo woo." It was momentarily overwhelmed by the happiness that was about to come, so don't forget to be alert. But this is really not an excuse for it! Really! The man's movements in front of it were so light that it could hardly detect them!
The owner of the mansion opposite: “… .” The feeling of wanting to relax in your own house late at night but finding that your house has been broken into is really… quite strange.
And what did the man on the other side mean? Did the dog find him and warn him in advance, so the matter was over? !
Pi Qinghua saw in the dim light that the man opposite was about to get angry, and immediately grabbed Lang Zhi's clothes again. The boy instantly understood what his second father meant. Although he was extremely reluctant in his heart, he carried out the torture without hesitation.
“Dad, that uncle looks so scary. Didn’t he say that this house was lent to you by your uncle? This is the first time that Xiaozhi has lived in such a nice house since he was a child. But dad, you said that this house is very precious to your uncle, so we can’t touch anything in the house and can only sleep on the floor… Now that uncle is back and we are leaving, why does he still look so angry? Xiaozhi was very good and didn’t sleep on the bed… Woo… Dad, will uncle beat us? Tell him not to beat you, just beat me! Woo… Woo… Woo…”
Pi Qinghua was instantly immersed in the role, hugging Lang Zhi and crying, "Son! Dad is useless! I gave birth to you but couldn't afford to raise you!! You've never eaten at McDonald's and don't have a fixed house to live in. You've been wandering with me for so many years! If I hadn't been burned by fire, I wouldn't have been hired to work and had to pick up rags with you!!"
Seeing that his two masters had entered the self-torture mode, Dahei let out a spiritual howl, limped to his master's side, lay on him with his dog legs, and howled loudly.
The owner of the mansion opposite who was being tortured: “… ”
Lang Yixing felt that he was unlucky today. He was annoyed by the group of clowns in the family. He finally wanted to find a quiet place to rest, but the result made him want to laugh. Looking at the obvious pretense of the two people and the dog in front of him, Lang Yixing took several deep breaths before he didn't kick them.
He pinched his brow impatiently and said coldly to the obvious homeless man opposite: "I'll give you one minute to completely disappear from my sight, otherwise I will call the police."
The moment this sentence was uttered, Pi Qinghua, Lang Zhi and Dahei stopped wailing within three seconds, switched from self-torture mode to escape mode, and started running with their bags on their backs without saying a word.
However, the moment Pi Qinghua passed by Lang Yixing, Lang Yixing grabbed his arm directly. The big hand that grabbed his arm was so strong that Pi Qinghua had no way to break free.
Suddenly, Pi Qinghua's terrible memory of being grabbed and pushed into the fire pit surfaced, and the pair of eyes that had just been relaxed suddenly became extremely vicious and fierce, "What are you doing?"
Lang Yixing was startled by the man's extremely hateful eyes and flawless right face. He subconsciously loosened his hand, then frowned again: "Even if you are penniless and wandering around, you shouldn't teach your child to pretend and act. It won't do him any good."
Pi Qinghua was stunned by the irrelevant sermons for a moment, then he reacted and laughed angrily, "If I hadn't taught him these, he would have died a long time ago. Also, don't look for me if you want to preach. His father who watched his child being kidnapped for his mistress, money and power is a fool worse than pigs and dogs. Please look for the right spot next time. Even if I'm a homeless person, compared to animals, I still think I'm very loving."
Lang Yixing was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the homeless man was not the biological father of the child. He thought that the homeless man was not a bad person, but he was obviously not very happy to be refuted in person. Moreover, for some reason, Lang Yixing always felt that the ridicule of the man in front of him was like mocking him, and he felt guilty for some reason.
"What are you doing?! Let go of my second father!!"
After running for a while, Lang Zhi didn't see his second father catching up, so he rushed back with a ferocious face like a little lion. When he saw Lang Yixing holding Pi Qinghua, his eyes turned red, and he lowered his head and bumped into him without even thinking, and then... it was almost like hitting a wall, and he took a few steps back.
Lang Zhi: "... Second Dad, run, this big guy is as hard as a bear!"
Lang Yixing: “… ” He really felt very tired tonight. He was now sure that the homeless man had not abused the child, judging by the force with which he had hit his waist and his nervous tone… However, the boy was still quite courageous.
As soon as Lang Yixing was distracted, Pi Qinghua seized the opportunity to shake off his hand, then grabbed her adopted son and ran away with Dahei without looking back.
Okay, so tonight wasn’t a smooth evening, but good things come to those who wait, and I did manage to leave with the gold!
Lang Yixing looked at the big and small people and the dog leaving in a messy and funny way, and he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. The temperament of that person just now was really interesting. And that face... Although it was just a glimpse, he also saw the distorted left face that was completely different from the right face.
“What a pity.”
At this time, Lang Yixing's cell phone rang. When he picked up the phone, Lang Yixing's expression was cold and a bit vicious. He looked quite similar to little Lang Zhi just now.
"Boss, the man has been caught, but he said he doesn't know the whereabouts of the young master. Dadao and I are going to conduct a mental interrogation on him, what do you think?" A rather rough voice came from the phone.
Lang Yixing's expression turned even colder after hearing this, and then he said calmly: "Ask anything you want. If he doesn't speak, then go find his master. Since they dared to plot against me like that, they should know the consequences of the plot." Although the son was conceived through surrogacy, he was raised seriously for three years. He raised him as both a father and a mother for three years. Although he hired a nanny, he was still upset by the little brat in the meantime. He couldn't let all this frustration go to waste!
He was still waiting to raise his son and capture him to work as a laborer.
"A-choo!" Lang Zhi, who was sleeping in the park, sneezed. "Humph, it must be my ruthless father who is thinking about how to torture me!"
"A-choo!" Lang Yixing sneezed loudly, "Tsk, who is this reckless idiot who wants my money again? I can't kill him."
